I just got my new vortex III and finished setting up windows but was wondering what else I need to do. I've got two hard drives an ssd for my OS and a HDD but I can't see the HDD in my computer but I can see it in device manager, what do I need to do to get it showing up and usable. I also have a HD7970m But I've no idea weather the driver it has will do or how to upgrade it's driver. Lastly does anyone who's just set up their own Vortex III know any other drivers I should install or update.

Check in disk management to see if the missing drive is showing there,
click "Start"/right click"computer"/Manage/under "Storage"select "Disk Management",
or click "start" and type diskmgmt.msc in search box.
It's possible you only need to assign a Drive letter,
to do this right click on the bar of the drive in the lower half of the screen,
select "change drive letter and paths"
click on the Add button in the next menu and pick a drive letter.
Click ok to assign selected drive letter or choose your own letter from the drop down menu.
If the drive is showing as unallocated,
right click on the black bar of the "unallocated drive",
click on "new simple volume"then follow the wizard.
check in "computer" to confirm missing drive is showing.
click "Start"/right click"computer"/Manage/under "Storage"select "Disk Management",
